by 3DGDA Dot COM · 10/31/2008 (2:51 pm) · 23 comments
Hi there,
we are about to start some casual game production and can't solve one problem.
The game will be about a young magician who is studying at the old wizard's(Nosy Took) magic store. One day the teacher is gone and our hero is to manage the store by herself.
That is the point when the player begins and here is the hero concept:
We are situated in Russia and wanted to give the main hero some russian-style name, but we failed to choose it. So, help us, please!
Here is the list with which we have ended up:
1. Natasha (4 votes)
2. Natashka (0 votes)
3. Nastya (2 votes)
4. Katya (1 vote)
5. Nadya (3 votes)
6. Emmie (2 vote)
Please vote for the name in such kind of experiment and help us to choose!
Looking forward to your comments and thank you very much!

Well, since it looks geared toward kids, I'll come at it from that perspective. :) Emmie seems like a name a kid could relate to, and it's probably the easiest to pronounce (for American kids anyway!). I like the balance of warm and cold colors in the concept pic and hope you can translate that feeling into the game.

I vote for Natasha. It's the crazed look in her eyes that does it.

I'm with Edward in this. "Natasha, the russian" is cheesy as "Joe, the USA boy".I vote for Katia. Is very russian and international too.
